freddie roach - all his fighters throw crisp punches, have great technique on shots ronnie shields - combinations, lateral movement and jab Manny Steward - great jabs and footwork Nazim Richardson - master tactician, doesn't focus too much on technique but tries to get his fighters to win the fights using the tools they have i wish david haye would hire roach or shields
Manny Steward is Mr Fundamentals. He will strip a fighter down and rebuild him into his type of fighter. He likes fighters to keep everything long and off of a jab. Roach likes to drill fighters over and over different combinations,punches and movements. Naazim is a tactically aware and a man who presents the blueprint for war and really bases a lot around the basics and doing them right.
nah, i've seen roger coaching amateurs and some lesser known pros he's mostly about fundamentals, hands up, lateral movements, punch technique, i think its only floyd he trains different.
Emanuel Steward - getting fighters to fight tall, good jab and right hand. Low lead hand. Nazim Richardson - making sure the fighters are drilled to offset the opponent's strong points using what they have. Freddie Roach - ironing out flaws and fighting to a plan. Oh, and being a twat.
24/7 have ****ed with roach and floyd sr's heads before 24/7 roach was a quiet guy and floyd sr although was pretty arrogant he was nothing like he is now.
I don't see the fuss about Floyd sr either. He got a lot of publicity for his work with DLH, but other than the win over Vargas there isn't a great deal of note, especially given that he took Oscar's left hook away to a large degree. Sure, he looks great on the pads but doesn't offer particularly clever tactics or good instructions in the corner. Roger is easily a better trainer.
I don't think Roach is as much of a twat as I thought he was, he just talks a lot and is a bit melodramatic.
like him or not buddy mcgirt did quiet well with arturo gatti, buddy works best with brawlers who need tweaking.
^^^ That's the problem. He's had Paulie against Cotto and Hatton, basically two blokes that he wouldn't beat with a baseball bat, regardless of the advice McGirt did or didn't give it wouldn't have mattered.
mcgirt didn't have paulie for cotto but you're right buddy's in situations where he cant win. mayweather vs gatti, rahman vs wlad etc
